RTC DM
Hi,
A switch on level 11(or12?) with the spiders, is not working. I am unable to get to the area with the 3 gates which open to the spiders. I was there once but now the open-able wall stays closed, although spiders seam to get through. Is there a way to get the switch working properly or to get through the wall?
Thanks.

Re: RTC DM
Hmmm. That sounds like a dungeon bug. Have you looked at that area in the RTC editor -- is the switch set to Toggle and has a repeatable action or does it Disable Self?
The area's not essential for completing the game though. It's just "extras".
Welcome to the forums, by the way!

Re: RTC DM
Just load RTCeditor.exe in your RTC folder, then browse to your Modules folder to open the TXT file for a supplied dungeon. Once it's open, you can see how it all works... Learn by experimenting, it's the best way...

Re: RTC DM
Thanks, whilst awaiting you reply I did just that but,the changes do not seem to effect the save games. Do I need to apply it to them in some way.

Re: RTC DM
No, you can't change a saved game unfortunately. Did you see if the trigger for that wall has a bug? If it did, and you've corrected it and saved it, it will only show up once you compile the new RTC file from that TXT file -- so you'd have to play the entire dungeon again...
Re: RTC DM
Thanks again I'm sorry to hear that. Yes I did find a bug, although the switch was set to toggle it was also set to disable self. I re downloaded rtc and the bug was not there! I know it's not essential is there a cheat to get through the wall please?
Re: RTC DM
None I'm afraid, no one has cracked the .sv file so you can't alter it
All you could do is edit a new game to give you the same same characters and possessions, and teleport you to the same position

Re: RTC DM
Do you mind if I ask an unrelated question? Whilst trawling the forum I read somewhere, I can't find it again, that shields have no effect! Is this correct? Is it not worth while having one?

It's this thread here - http://www.dungeon-master.com/forum/vie ... 28&t=28014
And yes, I would say that it more or less is correct - keep a hand free for something that you actually can use properly, like a flask .
